Mr Bogusian is a character in the stage plays Fiddlers Five and Fiddlers Three. In the reworking of the play he is given the name Felix Bogusian. Stage directions describe him as "a very large Croatian man with a beaming smile." He is a business partner of Sam Fletcher and like him, he is in dire need of money. He tells Sam that he might have some money come in in a few months time if a venture of his succeeds, but he has not ready money--he can barely eat. When it comes to taking a bus, he has a technique to avoid paying fares. Bogusian thus shares Sam's hope to secure money from Henry Panhacker who is about to acquire a large sum of money from his father provided he remains alive for another week. To this end, he becomes one of the "fiddlers" in the title.
